Winners of ELLIS FAAS: ELLIS EYES Light Giveaway


It is time to announce the results of the ELLIS EYES Light Giveaway. I must say a big thank you to all who took part!

I would also like to take this opportunity to mention two other things. Firstly, I'd like to say welcome to all my new readers. Secondly, to my fellow bloggers, I've not been very good at catching up with all your blogs lately, partly due to this, so please accept my apologies.

Anyway, the response to the giveaway was amazing. However, I have had to disqualify a few entries as some participants had filled up the form twice. I had stated in the rules that the form need only be filled up once. So, for these participants, I disqualified their second entries.

I received more than three hundred qualifying entries (not counting the additional entries earned). Each winner wins an ELLIS EYES Light pen in the shade of their choice from ELLIS FAAS.

Congratulations to the following five winners:

Stephanie
Samantha Lee
Lindsey Townend
Athinna
lisa

I'm sure you will have fun creating looks with your Light! An email will be sent to you shortly. Please respond within 72 hours with your postal details as otherwise, another winner will be chosen.

To all participants with qualifying entries, ELLIS FAAS will be sending an email containing the 15% discount coupon code to each of you in the next couple of weeks. You may use this code for your next purchase from the ELLIS FAAS online shop (discount does not apply to shipping charges).

Last but not least, many thanks to ELLIS FAAS for making it possible for me to hold this giveaway.

ELLIS FAAS: Eye Look With Light III


To all my readers, old and new, I must apologise for the lack of variety in my posts this month. Thank you for sticking around with me. You could be a silent reader or you could be one who regularly leaves comments here. I truly appreciate the support you’ve given me.

July hasn’t been the easiest month for me. My father passed away this month. Gone quite suddenly, gone too soon. Daddy’s little girl misses him dearly, so this simple article is dedicated to my Papa.

Right eye

These are the ELLIS FAAS products used:



L-R:
Creamy Eyes E103 (matte black)
Light E305 (metallic, holographic Bordeaux)
Mascara E401



What I did:
1. Applied a generous amount of Creamy Eyes E103 to upper lid using the pen’s brush applicator. Also used finger to dab on E103 to fade out the edges. Dragged colour out on the outer corner of the eye.
2. Used an eyeliner brush to line thickly the lower lash line with E103.
3. Join, in the inner corner, the black of E103 on the lower lash line with the black on the upper lid, forming a V.
4. On top of the black on the lower lash line, line the eye with Light E305.
5. Dab on some E305 on the outer corner of the eye, layering it over the E103.
6. Curled lashes and applied Mascara E401.
7. With the finger, transferred some shimmery bits of E305 onto the lashes, by running the finger lightly over the lashes. The two ‘teardrops’ on the inner corner were dabbed on with the finger.

Smokey and somber. I weep, but I do not weep.

Rest in peace, Papa. May you rest in peace.
